Experience language and arts in the "documenta" city of Kassel! We offer exciting art projects, recreational activities and intensive language tuition. Our art course offers participants the chance to improve their language skills while also getting creative with an art project of their own. A variety of additional excursions also offers students the opportunity to get to know the culture, art and history of Germany.

Each participant is graded according to his/her individual language proficiency. All linguistic skills are taught intensively in our language courses, with a particular focus on communication. Through the inclusion of cultural and scoial issues in the course content, students will also gain a better understanding of the culture and history of German-speaking countries.

Through a supervised project, participants are able to realize their own creative ideas by means of applying various artistic techniques. They are guided and supported by artists and professionals from the film industry, who provide students with the opportunity to record and edit films, as well as to engage in photography, painting and drawing. At the end of the course, participants may present their own work in an exhibition. The course is concluded with a language exam and the awarding of certificates.

The course is supplemented with a comprehensive out-of-class program. Alongside a variety of recreational activities, we also offer a diverse program of excursions. Our excursions connect learning, leisure and everyday life and offer interesting insights into the German way of life, history and culture.

Kassel, a mid-sized city in the heart of Germany, is world-renowned for the international art exhibition "documenta," a large contemporary art exhibition that takes place in Kassel for 100 days once every 5 years. We will turn your language-learning visit to the documenta city of Kassel into a unique cultural experience!
